Manchester United ‘have made contact with Leicester City about signing Wesley Fofana’ – but the impressive 20-year-old defender won’t come cheap. Fofana, a France under-21 international, has been excellent in his first season for the Foxes after joining from Saint-Etienne for £36.5million last October.

There are occasions when Kelechi Iheanacho lets his mind drift back to his childhood in Obogwe, Nigeria. Simpler times, easier times. Times free of the pressures and demands of professional sport.

The man who would become England’s greatest World Cup goalscorer drew a rare blank in his first FA Cup semi-final — but perhaps Gary Lineker was cursed from the off.

Arsenal are reportedly hoping to beat Leicester to the signing of Odsonne Edouard from Celtic this summer.

Back in September 2019, James Maddison stood in the darkened corner of a vast warehouse and explained what kept him the right side of a thin divide. ‘There is a fine line between confidence and arrogance,’ he told Sportsmail. ‘I am just a confident guy. It’s how I am, it’s how I’ve been raised…. I …

Gary Neville thinks Leicester will miss out on the top four again this season after a damaging defeat to European rivals West Ham on Sunday. The Foxes have been in the Champions League places for the majority of the season but a 3-2 defeat at fourth-placed West Ham left them just two points ahead of …

It would be easy, and wholly appropriate, to lavish praise on Jesse Lingard after this magnificent win. Undoubtedly, the comeback story of the season. In front of England manager Gareth Southgate, the West Ham attacker was breathtaking… again. Similarly, it would be as justified to herald David Moyes’ re-emergence as a managerial powerhouse as he …

Roy Keane hailed Jesse Lingard‘s professionalism after another scintillating attacking performance for West Ham, but jokingly criticised his goal celebration.
